I think Japanese eat more vegetables, when I just see what you may can buy in Japan, for fast food, and what you can buy here, then it`s no wonder, that Japanese lifes healthier. Here, when I want buy something fast to eat, you will find hardly any vegetable stuff, mostly stuff high in carbs and fat. (Only vegetable thing is maybe some salads.)
I mean just buying a bento-box have vegetables in it. And I`m sure you will find much more stuff with vegetables in Japan.

I think expansive food doesn`t stopped one from eating much... (I think food is expensive here too, and it seems I do eat too much..)
